January 28, 2008 WIDSETH <br /> SMITH <br /> NOLTING <br /> The Honorable Mayor and City Council <br /> City of Pequot Lakes <br /> 4368 County Road 11 <br /> Pequot Lakes, MN 56472 <br /> RE: Engineering Services Proposal <br /> South Oak Street Improvements <br /> Dear Mayor and Members of the Council: <br /> This is a follow-up to the first phase of reconstruction in 2007 of South Oak Street from <br /> Brown Street south to West Lake Street. <br /> We understand the City is considering continuing with the reconstruction of South Oak <br /> Street by looking at the portion from West Lake Street down to about Miller Street— <br /> Miller Street being a platted, but not a constructed, street roughly across from the south <br /> property line of the School. <br /> WSN has previously provided the City with study phase engineering services for <br /> roadway and storm drainage improvements on the entire length of South Oak Street, <br /> including this stretch. <br /> As part of that study, it was noted that the existing Right-of-Way (R/W) in this stretch <br /> was only 33-feet wide and that an additional 33-feet of R/W should be obtained from the <br /> School District. <br /> This proposal is for services associated with assisting the City in obtaining this R/W, or <br /> permanent easement, from the School District. We have worked with the City on some <br /> initial discussions with the School District on obtaining this permanent easement from <br /> them. The School District, while it appears they are agreeable in concept, has several <br /> issues and questions. Our scope would include the associated roadway, parking, and <br /> storm drainage preliminary design and layouts to address the School District's issues <br /> and questions. <br /> Once these are addressed and the final scope of improvements is better known, we can <br /> give the City a subsequent proposal to finalize the design, provide bidding drawings and <br /> specifications, assist the City with bidding, and assist the City with construction phase <br /> services. <br /> 7804 Industrial Park Road • PO Box 2720 • Baxter,MN 56425-2720 • TEL:218.829.5117 • FAX:218.829.2517 • WEB:www.wsn-mn.com <br /> ENGINEERING ARCHITECTURE LAND SURVEYING ENVIRONMENTAL SERVICES <br />
